Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

"It's clear that the mission is not to bring the Empress safely to the palace James, we need to find out what we're supposed to do now," Ariel complained, they needed to find out what the mission was as soon as possible.

"That's what I'm wondering, neither Nyx nor anyone else has been able to find out what the mission is, each individual on this floor, or each group that has entered the floor as a group, is given a different mission and the missions never repeat themselves, that's what I've been told," James replied.

"So our task could be to harvest a piece of land or go and, I don't know... hunt a monster?" asked Ariel curiously.

"Apparently yes, that seems to be what's going to happen," replied James, making everything strange that they had nothing to do, or rather they didn't know what they were supposed to do.

After a short meal, James took Yue with him and they went to Cordelia.

Cordelia was sitting at the table at the top of the stairs with her eldest son and daughter, wondering why James had come to them, when he began to speak:

"Frankly, we don't know what we're going to do on this floor, we're going to search the empire for answers for a while and if we don't get any answers we're going to leave Cordelia."

At James' words, Cordelia looked taken aback.

"I'm sure we can get to the bottom of this problem, we've done mission research for other climbers before, give me a few days and I can sort it all out, but for now come and sit down and have a drink with me," Cordelia said, and she was right, everyone knew that there was no way to get to any conclusion on this floor personally. Someone had to help and in this case, that help was needed.

"And how exactly do you plan to do that? How exactly are you going to find my floor task for me?" asked James curiously as he sat down in one of the armchairs on the floor next to the table and waited for the answer.

"It's simple, seers. There are a lot of seers among us cultivators, even among normal people there are people born as seers. These people can look into your future for you for a certain payment. To be more precise, these seers look into the future about a subject you are focussed on, which means that you can learn the floor task." Cordelia replied.

"Well, have it your way, my friend, I'll follow," James said, and the feast continued.

When the feast ended after almost three days, Cordelia summoned a few of the palace seers, and then James and Ariel came into the seers' room.

One of the seers held out his hands and said, "Please take my hand, masters." When James and Ariel did as they were told, the seer opened his mouth once and said, "Please think about what you want to know."

James and Ariel closed their eyes and immediately began to think about the floor mission of the 37th floor, and after only a short time, the seer quickly withdrew his hands and began to tremble. Before the two realised what was happening, the seer had fallen to the floor and then passed out.

Chapter Discover:

Cordelia and the others didn't realise what had happened, even Chao himself was surprised. The Seer glared at James in particular before passing out, and that meant something was wrong.

"Ummm...Well?" said James, he had no idea what he was supposed to say.

At Cordelia's command, the seer, who had the highest rank in the room, moved forward, albeit with trepidation, and when the same thing happened again, the seer sweatily let go of the pair's hands and fell to the floor before he could speak, looking at James with fearful eyes.

The seer did not fain but was breathing deeply and trying to understand what was happening.

After a few minutes, he must have managed to regain consciousness as he shook his head and said, "What you need to do is to kill a demon, it may seem simple but it is a very powerful demon. A demon sealed within the borders of this empire on the eastern side of the continent. It may not be possible to harm the demon without Master Chao's help. You can get help from someone else instead, of course, it's up to you."

As the two listened to these words, Cordelia's curiosity was piqued and the beautiful woman asked, "What about the other seer, why did he faint?"

Hearing this question, the seer took a deep breath and let it out and then said, "It is normal for Master Chao to be travelling with you, Master Umbra, you have a pure soul, the purest soul I have ever seen in my three thousand years of life, but..." and didn't dare to continue.

"What is it?" asked James, his curiosity piqued.

"Young master...your soul is pure, but your shadow, the aura around you, everything is dark, lite DARK dark, do you understand what I mean? The people watching you...your entire lineage, I can see every one of them. How great a lineage can you be...who could be supporting you so that your entire lineage belongs to the darkness, but the soul of each of you shines with a white light?" the seer complained.

"You saw my ancestors?" James asked without waiting and with the seer's nod, Ariel's gaze fixed on James and as James tried to avert his eyes from Ariel, he muttered, "You should be more careful."

"How can I, young master Umbra? I was trying to investigate your floor mission when four people descended upon me. Two women, perhaps the most beautiful women I have ever seen, and two men, strange-looking men," the seer replied.

With these words, it became clear to James who the people who appeared were. Vladimir, Vlad, Emily and Abby.

"I swear we only had a quick peek," a voice churned in James' mind as he shook his head and said, "I'm sorry about your friend, I didn't mean to be a nuisance," and as the seers left the room, he was under the curious gaze of everyone.

It looked like he had some explaining to do, especially to Ariel.
